Dick will be remembered in the same way that Johnny Fairplay (?)is remembered.
(lol, don't think that name is exactly right. The guy on SUrvivor that said his Grandmother died)

To name one, how about Eric saying Dani will be pregnant by the fall by her own father and the other HG's laughing?

I don't understand how Dick is "the best player". His on the block, he holds the POV. He has three choices:

1. Veto Daniele as he said he would, thus LOSING the game

or

2. Save himself, which would mean that he LIED about saving Daniele and that he does NOT "tell it like it is" like he claims he does, which would be yet another LIE.

or

3. Refuse to use the POV, which would be another lie since he said he would, but that would leave Daniele vulnerable, which would be yet another lie because he would not be saving her as promised.

The "best player" in this game is NOT the one that evicts himself or lies while claiming to be the only honest one there, thereby getting his only true alliance member evicted.

Is Dick going to be remembered for being bad player?

Here is a list I made to help me make a decision:

1. Makes plays to "save" his daughter from Nick
2. Makes plays to "save" his daughter eviction
3. Corners one houseguest before/during competitions and calls them names, brings up anything they have said and badgers them with commentary from his own viewpoint.
4. Cooks and cleans for the house
5. Wins POV when he and daughter on block
6. Hides personal articles of other houseguests
7. When HOH does not get his targeted houseguest evicted.
8. Annoys houseguests with rude personal hygeine
9. Main power play is to tyrannize
10. "bad boy" personified

I say yes he is going to remembered as a bad player, even if he cooks/cleans and wins some competitions.

Is Dick going to be remembered for being bad player?

I can only speak for myself... I won't remember him as a bad player. I think I will remember him for his rants, his "call outs" and his spitting before calling him a bad player.

He certainly won't be remembered for being a great player, thats for sure!

I have to wonder how much different Dick would have played if Daniele wasn't in the game and vice versa...

A lousy player but decent entertainment. I'm amazed at how many people get the two confused.

How we see "the best player" "the worst player" is gonna be like BEAUTY it's in the eye of the beholder. In my eye so far Dick is not the best strategic player because he runs mostly off of emotion. But.....he is so entertaining and he is so dedicated to his daughter evidenced by his very tender moments with her many times this season that he has wormed his way into the hearts and minds of many people who may never have seen that side of him without Dani inside the house. He will be remembered and loved by many fans of all ages.

I do not find him to be entertaining in the least, the nicest thing (and probably not accurate) is that he is overbearing. There is so much undeserved focus on his foolishness, the other players are somewhat ignored.

People praise him for speaking his mind, but is that such a good thing when it gets so personal? People praise him for "telling it like it is," but in fact, half the time his crackpot theories are just plain wrong (Eric and Kail masterminding the game--what??).

I'm not sure how he will be remembered, but he will be remembered. Boston Rob was torn apart on these boards, but was invited to be on several reality shows afterwards. I remember going to look at polls for Survivor, and he was always at the top. I think lots of people just like the Bad boy/girl types who tell it like (they think)it is.

Dick could have been the best remembered player on BB but he completely screwed that up by being as vulgar as he has been. He could have gotten into people's heads without being verbally abusive, saved his daughter from the block, kept her out of his behavior and been seen as a martyr.
Instead he involved his daughter in his vulgar tirade and I'm hoping the others know it and, in my opinion, has embarrassed his family, (at least they should be).

(standard disclaimer for those who need it: this subject was about Dick and not Dick in conjunction with the others so don't assume my opinion of dick means I accept similar behavior from other hgs)
